the efferent pathways of the autonomic nervous system can be divided into the ________ divisions.
parasympathetic and sympathetic
parasympathetic and autonomic
sympathetic and autonomic
visceral sensory and somatic sensory

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system's efferent pathways have two main divisions - the parasympathetic and sympathetic. The parasympathetic is associated with rest - and - digest functions, while the sympathetic is related to fight - or - flight responses. The other options have incorrect combinations as 'autonomic' is the overall system and not a division within the efferent pathways, and 'visceral sensory and somatic sensory' are related to sensory, not efferent, functions.

Answer:

parasympathetic and sympathetic
